Abstract
We construct a quantum Frobenius map for the $SL_3$ skein module of any
oriented 3-manifold specialized at a root of unity, and describe the map by way
of threading certain polynomials along links. The homomorphism is a higher rank
version of the Chebyshev-Frobenius homomorphism of Bonahon-Wong. The strategy
builds on a previous construction of the Frobenius map for $SL_3$ skein
algebras of punctured surfaces, using the Frobenius map of Parshall-Wang for
the quantum group $\mathcal{O}_q(SL_3).$
